Dame Jeanne 3,30 Litres : “Tradition” by Cognac ABK6

This unique “Dame-Jeanne” in blown glass was produced by the famous Verrerie Biot and contains a precious and very old Cognac, both rich and complex, to be served with the traditional glass “pipette”. From very early on, the most exquisite Cognacs have been stored in the traditional glass recipients “Dame-Jeanne” upon reaching maturity. These famous largecapacity bottles with curves protected the eaux‑de‑vie from the air and from light, in order to preserve all of their qualities. We wanted to honour this ancestral tradition by putting this Cognac ABK6 in an authentic 3,3-litre “Dame Jeanne”, from the famous Verrerie de Biot. Tradition by ABK6 is a rich, supple and generous Cognac with vast aromatic complexity. Aromas of cedar, candied fruit and honey intermingle, producing a long-lasting taste and incomparable dimension and richness. To serve Cognac ABK6, this “Dame Jeanne” comes with an old glass pipette, used daily by the cellar master.

Anniversary set of two Porcelaine decanters: Cognac Leyrat

To celebrate the plantation of the vineyards at the top of the hill on the Domaine LEYRAT 40 years ago, a collector’s edition was created, with two antique Limoges porcelain decanters: LEYRAT XO and EXTRA. In 1973, the vineyards “Combe de Cormier” were planted on the Domaine de Chez Maillard. Forty years later, we are still benefiting from the vines planted at that time. We therefore take this opportunity of the 40th anniversary to remember that anything outstanding which is allowed to mature become magnificent. This luxury wooden box containing two authentic Limoges Porcelaine decanters, reminds the authenticity of French savoir-faire. LEYRAT XO unveils spicy notes in perfect balance with rancio. Cinnamon, gingerbread and liquorice elegantly enhance this very old Cognac. LEYRAT EXTRA offers aromatic richness, finesse and exceptional elegance. Aromas of rancio, woody spices such as cinnamon, ginger and cigar box, followed by ripened fruits develop during tasting. N° 1 (of limited edition of 12)

The Angels’ Share is a unique event gathering all the actors of the Cognac industry for one special night. The charity auction selling exceptional decanters offered by the Cognac Houses is the defining moment of this convivial and generous event.
This year Domaines ABK6 offers two exceptionnal Cognacs specially selected for this auction :

COGNAC LEYRAT BRUT ABSOLU – Sélection THE PLAZA New York

Francis Abécassis knows that the cellars of Cognac Leyrat contain inestimable treasures. He did not imagine however that his daughter Elodie would hunt out in the historical premises of the Domain, in the bottom of an old cupboard, an extremely rare collector’s item: a bottle sold to the Plaza Hotel in New York City in the 80’s under the label « Brut absolu ». Bottled at 88 proof (44 % alcohol), the bottle was preserved intact, in its original wooden box.

Thanks to both an incomparable site and know-how, Cognac Leyrat has been present for decades on the best tables of the world such as the Plaza, a timeless landmarked New York hotel renowned as the ultimate luxury lifestyle destination since 1907.

COGNAC ABK6 – Liberté

For the Abécassis family, carefully carrying out every stage of production is essential for making authentic single estate Cognacs. Being free to make no compromise is a true philosophy for them, which allows their Cognacs to unveil excellence. This limited edition of 18 crystal decanters emphasizes this freedom of action.The first decanter has been reserved for « La Part des Anges » auction.

LIBERTE of ABK6 is an exclusive selection of the most exquisite eaux-de-vie housed in the cellars, aged for a long period to reveal strength and typicity. Its aromas are specific of the rancio of very old Cognacs. The spicy elegance melts with the sweetness of honey, in a long and very pleasant finale.
